Caleb P. Burns, partner in Wiley Rein’s Election Law & Government Ethics Practice, was quoted in a November 22 Politico Pro article regarding the vetting process currently being conducted by President-elect Trump’s transition team for potential appointees. In contrast with the practices of previous incoming administrations, the team has engaged in a less formal process which it has initiated relatively late in the transition cycle.

“Campaigns and transition organizations in the past have gotten down to the business of governing more quickly,” said Mr. Burns. “It does not mean they cannot make up for lost time, now that they are singularly focused on it.”

Charlie has been nominated for President-Elect of the D.C. Bar. If elected, he would serve as President-Elect for the 2019-2020 term, and as President for the 2020-2021 term. Online voting runs through May 24.
